I experience sunburn and itching when I go out in the hot sun. What cream or medicine should I use to treat it?

Asked by Female, 28 · 5 days ago

It sounds like you are experiencing sunburn or a mild sun sensitivity. To soothe the skin and relieve itching, you can apply a cool compress, pure aloe vera gel, or calamine lotion. For targeted relief from itching, a mild over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream (1%) can be applied to the affected areas. An oral antihistamine, like cetirizine or loratadine, can also help calm the itch. To prevent this, always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher before going outside, wear protective clothing, and try to avoid peak sun hours. If you develop severe blistering, fever, or if symptoms persist, please consult a doctor.
